Tango Remote App Reviews

The problem I encountered which made the app rather useless for me is the fact that the remote control function defaults to Bluetooth. This is a problem because I play music from my iPod touch to my home stereo via Bluetooth. When I try to connect this app it insists on connecting via Bluetooth. Ya cant have both on Bluetooth. The remote control, an iPhone 4s, wants to pair with Bluetooth only and there is no manual over ride to select wifi for the remote function. If this app is only going to provide Bluetooth remote control functionality that is pointless because I can use my iPod to control the music while it plays through Bluetooth. In short, the app does nothing the iPod cant do. I dont use the app anymore. Hopefully, there will be a fix to allow the user to select either wifi or Bluetooth as the connection. Until that happens, this app is pointless for me. Tech support was very responsive but agreed that this was an issue for which there is no workaround.

This app has really made a difference in my not being tethered to my music player. It works with both wifi and Bluetooth. I use the Bluetooth more because it has less interruptions. I only wish that when I turn on the remote device that it would immediately stay on the remote instead of having to " find" it. This causes a delay in pausing the music. If it were instant then this would be GOLD in my book!!

I could not get this product to work at all. Save your money.

I love that you can control playback of iTunes content on one iOS device from another iOS device. Sometimes I like to hook my iPad up to the TV and then control video playback from my iPhone. The music playback works great, but the video content is limited to DRM free content, so I have to download content from iTunes onto a Mac or PC, strip the DRM, then load the stripped content to my iPad so I can play it to the TV. Quite cumbersome. Apple needs to allow 3rd party apps the ability to play DRM video content. I would also like functionality to create and play video playlists. If I want to program the evenings viewing content, Id like to create a video playlist with the movies and TV shows I want, in a specific order and just let it run the same way I might create a music playlist. Its s great concept, but needs work to meet my use case.

Would highly recommend getting it

This app worked great before the last update, now its super buggy does not stay connected and for some reason decides to repeat the first 20 seconds of a song over and over all by it self. Please fix. It worked just fine before!!!

I dont write many reviews for apps since I rarely purchase paid ones, but for 5 bucks this thing really gets you your moneys worth! Easy to set up and works well!

When looking at the information on this app nowhere did it state that it wouldnt support copyrighted movies/videos. I purchased this soy that I could control my daughters iPad while she was in the back seat and I was in the front. Waste of my money since this app wont do what I. Des it to do very disappointed

Turned my room into a surround sound system Controlled by my iPod

I teach in a large gym and use music daily. Bring able to control the tunes and volume from anywhere is a huge help. Highly recommend if you use music and move around a lot at work.

This app is perfect if you are at a party and want to dj it also!!! Great for home use too!! I highly recommend this!

This App is great. Has the iTunes Up Next Queue and a remote control function. This app foes a great job controlling the music from my iTunes Library on my iPhone.

I love this app! I am a solo singer that uses backing tracks and this app allows me to start my intro music myself outside of the room and use my iphone as a remote and set list. AND it works with wi-fi and bluetooth.

5 minutes ago I purchased and installed on my very old iPhone running 7.1 and my new iPad Air 2. Setup in seconds, control fast and across the yard. Perfect for upcoming reception with Apple TV. Very nice!

Bose sound touch in AUX mode connected to my iPod and seamless remote controlling through my iphone...wow..great... thanks..

The best remote play of all apps I have this on all my devices and have music throughout my house and back yard. Suggestion; any way to get this to stream music If i have a party and i get people to download your app and they want to add a song from their device. Can it temporarily stream it from their device to my device connected to the sound system????

I thought "someone should make an app that does this." Then I looked and there it was! Tango. Works exactly like was thinking it should. Best app on my phone (and iPad). But I’d like to be able to control music playing on my Mac from my iPhone (since I no longer have an iPad). There needs to be a Mac version that integrates with the iPhone and iPad versions.

Good app for controlling one iPhone/iPod on another but there is no equalizer on this app so i cant adjust the bass on my music which is a huge problem that makes this app worthless to me. Please add a way to turn down the bass in the music on the remote ( I need it even lower than apples bass reducer setting.

This app is really great for playing my music off of my iPad at home which I do a lot. There isnt much difference to using this app and interfacing directly with my iPad. Only down side is it uses up the battery on my phone at a higher rate than Id like. But other than that its great.

This would be great but the devices never connect without resetting and troubleshooting every time if even works at all.
